Description

This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910815716.X, filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Aug. 30, 2019 and entitled “TARGET USER LOCKING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE”, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This application relates to the field of electronic devices, and in particular, to a target user locking method and an electronic device.

BACKGROUND

With the improvement of living standards, people pay increasing attention to their health. Fitness exercise is widely recognized as an effective means to enhance physical fitness, and product solutions related to fitness exercise are also welcomed and liked by an increasing number of consumers. Fitness places are no longer limited to specific places such as gyms, and users can also exercise at home.
For example, large-screen electronic devices such as televisions that are possessed by most households may be used to perform intelligent fitness guidance for users by using an image processing technology. Specifically, a human body image of a target user may be collected by using a camera of an electronic device, a fitness action of the target user is recognized based on the collected human body image, then an action completion quality is evaluated based on a key indicator of the fitness action, and intelligent fitness guidance such as counting actions, pointing out a wrong action, and giving guidance for improvement is provided to the user, so that the user can exercise scientifically at home.
In a process of using the image processing technology to perform fitness guidance, locking (such as recognition or tracking) of the target user is a key to providing the intelligent fitness guidance. However, a large-screen electronic device such as a television in a household is usually disposed in a public area such as a living room, and when a target user exercises, another user such as a family member sitting on a sofa, a family member onlooker, a wallpaper portrait, or a person in a photo frame is likely to interfere with the electronic device in locking on the target user. Consequently, accuracy of locking the target user cannot be ensured.

SUMMARY

Embodiments of this application provide a target user locking method and an electronic device, to ensure accuracy of locking a target user.
To achieve the foregoing objective, the following technical solutions are used in this application:
According to a first aspect of this application, a target user locking method is provided. The method may be applied to an electronic device including a camera, and the method may include: The electronic device determines a target user, tracks the target user through the camera, and collects user image data through the camera in a process of tracking the target user. When determining, based on the collected user image data, that an interfering user exists in a frame, the electronic device collects human poses of all users in the frame through the camera. The frame includes some or all areas of a FOV of the camera. The electronic device determines a motion mode of each user in the frame based on the human poses of all the users in the frame. The electronic device determines, based on the motion mode of each user in the frame, that a user whose motion mode matches a motion mode of a coach in a fitness course in all the users in the frame is the target user, and continues to track the target user through the camera.
In the foregoing technical solution, after determining the target user, the electronic device tracks the target user in a fitness process of the user. In a tracking process, if the interfering user passes in front of the target user, or another interfering person overlaps with the target user, motion mode matching is used to ensure accuracy of tracking the target user, avoiding a case of incorrect transfer of the target user, and improving user experience and completability of a fitness action.
In a possible implementation, that the electronic device determines, based on the motion mode of each user in the frame, that a user whose motion mode matches a motion mode of a coach in a fitness course in all the users in the frame is the target user, and continues to track the target user through the camera includes: The electronic device removes, based on the motion mode of each user in the frame, the interfering user whose motion mode is an interfering motion mode from all the users in the frame. The interfering motion mode includes at least one of a static mode and a quasi-linear motion mode. The electronic device determines that a user whose motion mode matches the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course in all the users except the interfering user in the frame is the target user, and continues to track the target user through the camera. In this way, the interfering user is first filtered out, and then a motion mode of a remaining user in the frame is matched. This reduces a matching calculation amount, and further improves user experience and completability of a fitness action.
In another possible implementation, the determining, based on the collected user image data, that an interfering user exists in a frame includes: The electronic device determines, based on the collected user image data, that a user who interferes with the camera in collecting fitness data of the target user exists in the frame.

The determining that a user whose face image matches a stored face image in the frame is the target user may include: The electronic device determines that a user whose face image matches the face image stored in association with the account in the frame is the target user. The face image of the target user is stored in advance to prepare for the target user recognition.
In another possible implementation, the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course includes one or more of the following modes: cross-legged jump, left-right leg jump, hand-assisted squat, side-point punch, lateral knee lift, alternate lunge squat, lunge over-head high-five jump, semi-squat jump, standing with backward leg extension, squat lateral knee lift.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Based on an electronic device such as a television in a household, an image processing technology may be used to provide intelligent fitness guidance for a user, so that the user can also exercise scientifically at home. When the image processing technology is used to perform the fitness guidance, locking (such as recognition or tracking) of a target user by the electronic device is a key to providing the intelligent fitness guidance. For example, when the user starts to exercise, the electronic device may recognize a user in a specific area such as a center of a frame as the target user. Then, a human body detection algorithm and a target tracking algorithm are used to track the target user. In a tracking process, a human body image of the target user is collected. Based on the collected human body image, a fitness action of the target user is recognized, and fitness guidance such as counting the actions, pointing out a wrong action, and giving guidance for improvement is completed.
However, the foregoing process cannot ensure accuracy of locking the target user. For example, when a plurality of users exist in the specific area, it is difficult to determine the target user. When the target user temporarily leaves a field of view (FOV) of a camera and returns to the FOV of the camera again, if the electronic device has locked another user as the target user, it is difficult to switch the target user back to a previous user. When an interfering person overlaps with the target user (for example, passing by the front of the target user), a problem of incorrect tracking is prone to occur in the foregoing process. All of these problems may affect user experience of intelligent fitness based on the electronic device, and sometimes the user cannot even finish a complete set of fitness actions.
Embodiments of this application provide a target user locking method. The method may be applied to an electronic device including a display and a camera. In the method, the electronic device can accurately lock a target user, so as to accurately recognize and track the target user, and provide intelligent fitness guidance for the target user. This improves user experience when a user performs intelligent fitness by using the electronic device.
For example, the electronic device in the embodiments of this application may be a television, a tablet computer, a projector, a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a handheld computer, a notebook computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, or a device including a display and a camera, such as a cellular phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), or an augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR) device. A specific form of the electronic device is not specifically limited in the embodiments of this application.

The ISP is configured to process data fed back by the camera 193. In some embodiments, the ISP may be disposed in the camera 193.
The camera 193 is configured to capture a static image or a video. An optical image of an object is generated through the lens, and is projected onto a photosensitive element. The photosensitive element may be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The photosensitive element converts an optical signal into an electrical signal, and then transmits the electrical signal to the ISP for converting the electrical signal into a digital image signal.

Various components shown in FIG. 1 may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of hardware and software that includes one or more signal processing or application-specific integrated circuits.
All methods in the following embodiments may be implemented in the electronic device having the foregoing hardware structure. In the following embodiment, an example in which the electronic device is a television is used to describe the method in the embodiments of this application.
FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a target user locking method according to an embodiment of this application. As shown in FIG. 2, the method may include the following steps.
S201: An electronic device determines a target user.
The target user is a user who receives fitness guidance by using the electronic device.
For example, an application used to perform fitness guidance may be installed on the electronic device. When the user wants to exercise, the application on the electronic device may provide intelligent fitness guidance for the user. For example, the electronic device is a television. The application used to perform fitness guidance may be an “AI Fitness” application. When the user wants to use the television for fitness at home, the user may open the “AI Fitness” application on the television. For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, the user may perform, by using a remote control, an operation on an icon 301 of the “AI Fitness” application on an interface displayed on the television. In response to the operation, the television may open the “AI Fitness” application, and display an interface of the “AI Fitness” application. For example, the interface of the “AI Fitness” application may be an interface 302 shown in FIG. 3B. The “AI Fitness” application may provide the user with different types of fitness guidance. For example, the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application includes entries of various fitness guidance courses, such as an entry 303 of a course card 1, and the user may perform an operation on a corresponding entry based on a requirement, to select a desired fitness course for fitness guidance.
It may be understood that, when performing fitness guidance, the electronic device first needs to recognize a user who wants fitness guidance, in other words, needs to determine the target user. In this embodiment, the electronic device may determine the target user in the following manner:
Manner 1: The electronic device may recognize a user's biometric feature such as a face, to determine the target user.
For example, the electronic device is a television. When the user wants fat burning guidance, the user may select a corresponding guidance course on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application shown in FIG. 3B. For example, the user may perform an operation on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application by using the remote control. In response to the operation, the television may determine the target user.
In Manner 1, S201, that is, a process in which the electronic device determines the target user, may include steps shown in FIG. 4A. The electronic device opens a camera of the electronic device, and collects user image data through the camera (that is, performs S401). The electronic device determines a quantity of users in a frame based on the collected user image data by using a human body detection algorithm (that is, performs S402). The frame includes some or all areas of a FOV of the camera. If the quantity of users in the frame is 0, S401 is performed again. If the quantity of users in the frame is 1, the electronic device may determine that the user in the frame is the target user (that is, perform S403).
If the quantity of users in the frame is greater than 1, the electronic device collects face images of all the users in the frame through the camera (that is, performs S404). The electronic device recognizes whether the face images of all the users in the frame match a stored face image (that is, performs S405). If the electronic device recognizes a user whose face image matches the stored face image in the frame, the electronic device determines that the user corresponding to the successfully matched face image is the target user (that is, performs S406). A quantity of the target user may be one, or may be two or more. For example, if the electronic device determines that one user whose face image matches the stored face image exists in the frame, the electronic device determines that the user is the target user. If the electronic device determines that a plurality of (such as two or more) users whose face images match the stored face image exist in the frame, the electronic device may determine that all the plurality of users are the target users, or the electronic device may determine the target user from the plurality of users in Manner 2 or Manner 3 below.
If the electronic device does not recognize, from the collected face images of all the users in the frame, a face image that matches the stored face image, the user who wants fitness guidance may not be in the frame. Therefore, in a possible implementation, the electronic device may play or display prompt information to prompt the users to change a position, so as to ensure that the camera can detect the user (that is, perform S407). In addition, the electronic device may perform S401 again. Alternatively, the electronic device may not store a face image of the user who wants to exercise. In this case, in another possible implementation, the electronic device may determine the target user in another manner, for example, in Manner 2 or Manner 3 below (that is, perform S408). Certainly, in this implementation, the electronic device may also display prompt information to prompt the user to input the face image, so that the electronic device can recognize the user during next fitness exercise.
In this embodiment, the face image stored in the electronic device may be entered and stored by the user when fitness guidance is performed based on the electronic device for the first time. For example, when the user uses the electronic device to perform fitness guidance for the first time, the electronic device may prompt the user to create a personal account and collect face data. In this way, the user may create the personal account on the electronic device according to the prompt, and the electronic device collects the face image of the user. After the collection succeeds, the electronic device may store the collected face data. The face image may be stored in association with the created personal account. One or more face images may be stored in association with a same personal account. Face images stored in association with different personal accounts may be the same or different. In other words, S405 may be specifically: The electronic device may recognize whether the face images of all the users in the frame match a face image stored in association with a personal account that is currently logged in to.
An example in which the electronic device is a television is used with reference to the example shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B. After the user performs an operation on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application by using the remote control, as shown in FIG. 4B, the television may collect the face images of all the users in the frame (for example, a fan-shaped range shown in FIG. 4B) through the camera. As shown in FIG. 4B, the fan-shaped range includes a user 1 and a user 2. The user 1 sits on a sofa, the user 2 is a user preparing to exercise, and the television stores a face image of the user 2. After the face images of all the users, that is, the user 1 and the user 2, in the frame are collected, the television may recognize whether the face images of the user 1 and the user 2 match the stored face image. The television may match that the face image of the user 2 matches the stored face image. In this case, it is determined that the user 2 is the target user.
Manner 2: The electronic device may recognize a human pose of the user, to determine the target user.
As the example in Manner 1, the electronic device may determine the target user after receiving an operation performed by the user on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application.
In Manner 2, S201, that is, a process in which the electronic device determines the target user, may include the steps shown in FIG. 5A. The electronic device opens a camera of the electronic device, and collects user image data through the camera (that is, performs S501). The electronic device determines a quantity of users in a frame based on the collected user image data by using a human body detection algorithm (that is, performs S502). If the quantity of users in the frame is 0, S501 is performed again. If the quantity of users in the frame is 1, the electronic device may determine that the user in the frame is the target user (that is, perform S503).
If the quantity of users in the frame is greater than 1, the electronic device may play or display prompt information to prompt the users to complete a target action, for example, an iconic action such as stretching arms to both sides, bending arms, akimbo, swinging arms, nodding, or kicking leg (that is, perform S504). A user who needs fitness guidance completes the target action according to the prompt, but a user who does not need fitness guidance does not complete the target action according to the prompt. The electronic device collects human poses of all the users in the frame through the camera, and recognizes, by using a human pose estimation algorithm, whether the human poses of all the users in the frame match the target action (that is, performs S505). The human pose estimation algorithm is an algorithm for detecting a human key point by training a neural network model, and describing a human pose (pose) based on the human key point.
If the electronic device recognizes that a user whose human pose matches the target action exists in the frame, the electronic device determines that the user corresponding to the successfully matched human pose is the target user (that is, performs S506). A quantity of the target user may be one, or may be two or more. For example, if the electronic device determines that one user whose human pose matches the target action exists in the frame, the electronic device determines that the user is the target user. If the electronic device determines that a plurality of (such as two or more) users whose human poses match the target action exist in the frame, the electronic device may determine that all the plurality of users are the target users. Alternatively, if a course selected by the user is allowed to be performed by only one person, that is, a single-person mode, the electronic device may play or display prompt information to prompt another user to avoid, perform S505 again until it is determined that only one user whose human pose matches the target action exists in the frame, and determine that the user is the target user.
If the electronic device does not recognize, from the collected human poses of all the users in the frame, a human pose that matches the target action, the user who wants fitness guidance may not be in the frame. Therefore, in a possible implementation, the electronic device may play or display prompt information to prompt the users to change positions, so as to ensure that the camera can detect the user (that is, perform S507). In addition, the electronic device may perform S501 again. Alternatively, the action of the user may not be standard. In another possible implementation, the electronic device may perform S504 again to indicate to the user to complete the target action again. It can be understood that the user only needs to complete a specified action, so that the electronic device can automatically complete determining of the target user. This conveniently implements determining of the target user.
An example in which the electronic device is a television is used with reference to the example shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B. An example in which the electronic device is a television is used with reference to the example shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B. After the user performs an operation on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application by using the remote control, as shown in FIG. 5B, the television may display an interface 501. The interface 501 includes prompt information 502, and the prompt information 502 is used to prompt a user to complete a target action: stretching arms to both sides. In addition, the television may collect human poses of all users in the frame (a fan-shaped range in FIG. 5B) through the camera. As shown in FIG. 5B, the fan-shaped range includes a user 1 and a user 2. The user 1 is a user preparing to exercise. The user 1 completes the action of stretching arms to both sides according to the prompt, but the user 2 does not perform the action. After the human poses of all the users, that is, the user 1 and the user 2, in the frame are collected, the television may recognize whether the human poses of the user 1 and the user 2 match the target action. The television may match that the human pose of the user 1 matches the target action. In this case, it is determined that the user 1 is the target user.
In addition, in this embodiment, after the electronic device determines the target user, a fitness step may start. In the fitness step, the target user may complete fitness actions according to course guidance displayed on a display of the electronic device. In this Manner 2, in a fitness process of the target user, if another user wants to try fitness training or wants to complete relay training, the user may complete the foregoing target action, so as to trigger the electronic device to switch the target user. In this way, it may be relatively convenient to switch the target user, and an original target user does not need to avoid. In addition, in the fitness process of the target user, if the target user temporarily leaves the FOV of the camera, so that the electronic device switches to track a non-target user, when the user returns to the FOV of the camera, the user may also complete the foregoing target action to enable the electronic device to re-determine the user as the target user, and the other user does not need to avoid.
Manner 3: The electronic device determines the target user by using a wearable device worn by the user with reference to the recognized human pose of the user.
The wearable device may be a device such as a watch, a band, a sports headset, or a running pod. The user may pair the wearable device worn by the user with the electronic device and establish a wireless connection. In addition, in an exercise process of the user, the wearable device worn by the user may transmit motion data (for example, an angular velocity or acceleration) of the user to the electronic device.
As the example in Manner 1, the electronic device may determine the target user after receiving an operation performed by the user on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application. In Manner 3, S201, that is, a process in which the electronic device determines the target user, may include: The electronic device opens the camera of the electronic device to play or display prompt information to prompt the users to complete a target action, for example, an iconic action such as bending arms, akimbo, swinging arms, nodding, or kicking leg. A user who needs fitness guidance completes the target action according to the prompt, but a user who does not need fitness guidance does not complete the target action according to the prompt. The electronic device collects human poses of all the users in the frame through the camera. The electronic device determines that a user whose human pose matches the target action in all the users in the frame is the target user. In addition, the electronic device may further determine motion data of the target user based on the collected human pose of the target user. The electronic device compares the determined motion data of the target user with the motion data received from the wearable device, and may determine that a wearable device whose motion data matches the determined motion data of the target user is a wearable device of the target user.
Manner 4: The electronic device may determine the target user based on a location of the user in a specific area such as the frame.
As the example in Manner 1, the electronic device may determine the target user after receiving an operation performed by the user on the entry 303 of the course card 1 on the interface 302 of the “AI Fitness” application. In Manner 4, S201, that is, a process in which the electronic device determines the target user, may be: The electronic device may determine, based on the location of the user in the specific area (such as the frame), that the user in the specific area such as a center of the frame or an identification area is the target user.
It should be noted that, in the foregoing example, after the user selects a corresponding fitness course, the electronic device is triggered to perform an operation of determining the target user. Alternatively, the electronic device may perform the operation of determining the target user at another time. For example, the electronic device may determine the target user when receiving that the user opens the “AI Fitness” application. In this embodiment of this application, a time when the electronic device performs the operation of determining the target user is not specifically limited, and the operation of determining the target user only needs to be performed before the user starts to enter the fitness step.
S202: The electronic device tracks the target user, and collects a human body image of the target user in a tracking process.
S203: The electronic device performs fitness guidance based on the human body image collected in S202.
After the electronic device determines the target user, the fitness step may start. In the fitness step, the target user may complete fitness actions according to the course guidance displayed on the display of the electronic device. In addition, in a process in which the user performs the fitness action, the electronic device may track the target user in real time through the camera, and collect the human body image of the target user, so as to recognize the fitness action of the target user based on the collected human body image. The electronic device evaluates the completion quality of the fitness action of the target user based on the recognized fitness action and a corresponding key indicator, and provides intelligent fitness guidance such as counting the actions, pointing out a wrong action, and giving guidance for improvement.
In this embodiment, the electronic device may track the target user in the following manner.
Manner A: The electronic device may track the target user by using the wearable device worn by the target user.
In some embodiments, the wearable device worn by the target user may be paired with the electronic device and establish a wireless connection. If the electronic device determines the target user in Manner 3 in S201, the wearable device of the target user is determined in S201. If the electronic device determines the target user in Manner 1, Manner 2, or Manner 4 in S201, in this embodiment, after the electronic device performs S201, that is, determines the target user, the electronic device may determine the wearable device of the target user. In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine that a wearable device associated with the electronic device is the wearable device of the target user. That the wearable device is associated with the electronic device may be: The wearable device and the electronic device log in to a same account. Alternatively, a login account of the wearable device is a contact of a login account of the electronic device. Alternatively, a login account of the wearable device is the same as a login account of a fitness application such as the “AI Fitness” application of the electronic device. The foregoing account may be an account provided by a cloud service provider for a user, for example, a Xiaomi ID, a Huawei ID, or an Apple ID, or may be an account used to log in to an application, for example, a WeChat account or a Google mailbox account. In some other embodiments, the electronic device may prompt the target user to perform a specific operation such as tapping a screen or pressing a button on the wearable device of the target user. The electronic device may determine a wearable device that receives the corresponding operation as the wearable device of the target user.
In a process in which the target user completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the wearable device of the target user may collect the motion data of the user, and transmit the motion data to the electronic device. The motion data may include an angular velocity, acceleration, and the like. In addition, in a process in which the target user completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the electronic device may track the target user by using a target tracking algorithm through the camera. If an interfering user (for example, a user that appears in the frame and affects the electronic device to collect fitness data of the target user may be referred to as an interfering user) appears in a process of tracking the target user, for example, a body of a user overlaps with a body of the target user, in other words, the electronic device detects that an interfering user exists in the frame, the electronic device may collect human poses of all users in the frame through the camera. The electronic device determines motion data of each user based on the collected human poses of all the users in the frame. Then, the determined motion data is compared with the motion data received from the wearable device, a user whose motion data matches the motion data from the wearable device in the frame is locked as the target user, and continues to track the user by using the target tracking algorithm.
For example, the electronic device is a television. The user 1 is the target user, the target 2 is the interfering user, and a wireless connection is established between a watch of the user 1 and the television. In a process in which the user 1 completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the watch of the user 1 collects acceleration of the user 1 and transmits the acceleration to the television. In addition, in the process in which the user 1 completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the television may track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm through the camera. In a process of tracking the user 1, a body of the user 2 overlaps with a body of the user 1, for example, the user 2 sits on a sofa beside the user 1, and the user 1 overlaps with the body of the user 2 when completing the fitness actions. In this case, the television may collect human poses of all users such as the user 1 and the user 2 in the frame through the camera. The television may determine acceleration of the user 1 and acceleration of the user 2 based on the collected human poses of the user 1 and the user 2. Then, the television may match the determined acceleration to the acceleration from the watch. If it is matched that the acceleration of the user 1 is the same as the acceleration from the watch, the television may lock the user 1 as the target user, and continue to track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm.
Manner B: The electronic device may recognize motion modes of all users in the frame, to track the target user.
For a provided fitness course, a motion mode of a coach in the fitness course is usually known, a motion mode of the interfering user is often different from the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course, and a motion mode of the target user is the same as the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course. Therefore, the target user can be tracked by recognizing the motion modes of all the users in the frame.
As an example, the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course may include one or more of the following modes: cross-legged jump, left-right leg jump, hand-assisted squat, side-point punch, lateral knee lift, alternate lunge squat, lunge over-head high-five jump, semi-squat jump, standing with backward leg extension, squat lateral knee lift. The motion mode of the interfering user may include one or more of the following modes: a static mode (for example, a family member sits on the sidelines and watches the target user exercising, and a body envelope box of the family member is relatively static), and a quasi-linear motion mode (for example, a family member passes through the FOV of the camera, which is similar to a straight line motion).
In a process in which the target user completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the electronic device may track the target user by using the target tracking algorithm through the camera. If an interfering user appears in a process of tracking the target user, for example, a body of a user overlaps with a body of the target user, in other words, the electronic device detects that an interfering user exists in the frame, the electronic device may collect human poses of all users in the frame through the camera. The electronic device determines a motion mode of each user based on the collected human poses of all the users in the frame.
In some embodiments, the electronic device may compare the determined motion mode with the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course, lock a user whose motion mode matches the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course in the frame as the target user, and continue to track the user by using the target tracking algorithm. In some other embodiments, the electronic device may first determine the interfering user in the frame and filter out the interfering user. For example, the electronic device may filter, based on the motion modes of all the users in the frame, a user whose motion mode is an interfering motion mode such as the static mode or the quasi-linear motion mode in the frame, that is, filter out the interfering user. Then, the electronic device matches the motion mode of the user in the frame after the interference user is filtered out with the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course, locks a user whose motion mode is matched as the target user, and continues to track the user by using the target tracking algorithm. A quantity of the locked target users may be one, or may be two or more. That is, the electronic device may lock all users whose motion modes match the motion mode of the coach in the fitness course in the frame as the target users and track the target users.
For example, the electronic device is a television. The user 1 is the target user, and the target 2 is the interfering user. In the process in which the user 1 completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the television may track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm through the camera. The user 2 passes by the front of the user 1 when the user 1 completes the fitness actions, that is, in a process of tracking the user 1, the body of the user 2 overlaps with the body of the user 1. In this case, the television may collect human poses of all users such as the user 1 and the user 2 in the frame through the camera, and may determine, based on the collected human poses of the user 1 and the user 2, that the motion mode of the user 1 is side-point punch, and the motion mode of the user 2 is the quasi-linear motion mode. The television may determine that the user 2 is the interfering user and filter out the user 2. The television may further determine that the motion mode of the user 1 matches the motion mode (for example, side-point punch) of the coach in the fitness course. In this case, the television may lock the user 1 as the target user, and continue to track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm.
Manner C: The electronic device may track the target user in combination with a feature (for example, a face, or a face and another feature such as hairstyle or clothing) of the target user.
For example, the feature of the user is the face. If the target user is determined in Manner 1 in S201, the electronic device may track the target user based on the stored face image of the target user. If the target user is determined in Manner 2 or Manner 3 in S201, after determining the target user, the electronic device may collect and store the face image of the target user, so as to track the target user based on the face image of the target user in S203.
For example, the feature of the user is the face and another feature. If the target user is determined in Manner 1 in S201, after determining the target user, the electronic device may obtain and store the other feature such as the hairstyle or clothing of the target user, so as to track the target user. If the target user is determined in Manner 2 or Manner 3 in S201, after determining the target user, the electronic device may collect and store the face image and the other feature such as the hairstyle or clothing of the target user, so as to track the target user.
In a process in which the target user completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the electronic device may track the target user by using the target tracking algorithm through the camera. If an interfering user appears in a process of tracking the target user, for example, a body of a user overlaps with a body of the target user, in other words, the electronic device detects that an interfering user exists in the frame, the electronic device may collect features (for example, faces or human body images) of all users in the frame through the camera. The electronic device locks, based on the collected features of all the users in the frame, a user whose feature matches the stored feature as the target user, and continues to track the user by using the target tracking algorithm.
For example, the electronic device is a television. The user 1 is the target user, the target 2 is the interfering user, and the television stores a face image of the user 1. In the process in which the user 1 completes the fitness actions according to the course guidance, the television may track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm through the camera. When the user 2 passes by the front of the user 1 when the user 1 completes the fitness actions, the television may collect face images of all users such as the user 1 and the user 2 in the frame through the camera. Based on the collected face images of the user 1 and the user 2, the television may lock the user 1 as the target user, and continue to track the user 1 by using the target tracking algorithm.
In addition, in this embodiment, if the electronic device detects that the interfering user continuously interferes with data collection of the target user, the electronic device may play or display prompt information to prompt the other person to avoid the area. In this way, the interfering user appearing in the frame for a long time can be avoided.
According to the technical solution in this embodiment, the electronic device may complete processes such as target user determining and target user tracking in a fitness process by using a method such as recognizing a user feature, or recognizing a user with reference to data collected by a wearable device worn by the user, so as to ensure accuracy of locking the target user, and improve user experience when an electronic device is used to perform intelligent fitness. In addition, in a fitness process of the user, if the interfering user passes by the front of the target user, or another interfering person overlaps with the target user, motion mode matching may be used to ensure accuracy of tracking the target user, avoiding a case of incorrectly transfering of the target user, and improve user experience and completability of a fitness action.
